JESUS COMPLEX: Is Jesus God?

JESUS COMPLEX: Is Jesus God?

Visual Basic

Lest anyone be confused of my intentions: I am not turning this blog into a programmer's rant. In the first place, I'm not a programmer.

I did, however, find the title fitting to the new design of the site. Upon speaking with my blog composer adviser, it came to my attention that the color, black, is no way the best for reading and attracting visitors.

Furthermore, it is my aim to attract as many family visitors as possible to this page, and to this end I have decided to try changing the color. Does anyone feel more or less comfortable on the page after the changes.

What do you think fits better. Please weigh in! You can choose what you like better, black or white, in the survey to the right.

Student Loans

AHHHH! I can't believe I poured so much money into an education, which apparently brought me nothing. Of course there is a lot to be said for 5 year of good sound theological reading and German language learning.

Now I'm paying back loans though, on an education that I know longer plan on using. What in the world was I thinking. Can it be that I merely talked myself into being called to be a pastor? Of course it's possible. But most people would probably tell me that the Lord, is not done with me yet. That a time will come when all that education makes since.

Maybe it will and maybe it wont. Right now I'm just wishing I didn't have to find a way to make monthly payments on something not related to the field I'm working in. It reminds me of the time I bought my first computer for way too much money, because I thought it was necessary in order to have something good. There wasn't a day that went by that I didn't think of throwing that thing out our second floor window. I didn't learn then, and I didn't learn now... Well actually, the decision to study theology was, oddly enough, at around the same time I bought the computer.

I guess that means, I could brush this whole thing off as a phase?! AHHHH!
